Cast of 'Serenity' make Entertainment Weekly's 2005 Must List.
''I did the film because of them,'' says Whedon, who makes his movie-directing debut with Serenity (out Sept. 30). ''I couldn't let go.''

I saw Star Wars yesterday, and lo and behold, the Serenity trailer! A woman sitting next to me started bouncing up and down and clapping. I couldn't stop smiling!

I'm bringing it to Tampa just incase anyone shows up for signing!
The photo in print is twice as large as online but it's got writing on it.
By the way the print version lists it as #14-22 on the list, which is also HUGE!

The more I think about this the more excited I get. What I wouldn't give for a real photo print of that picture. It's glorious and does my wee cynical heart good.

I'll try to get my scanner working tonight
but I suspect someone will probably beat me to it by then...

I remember my pre-Buffy days. Hubby showed me a calendar of Spike in a store once and I kind of shrugged and mentally rolled my eyes because he was on about that 'cool British vampire' again...
Wow, how them times have changed.

For some reason, this makes it seem real. I’m gonna cry again.

This post made my day. I'm a regular reader of 'EW' and their reports are pretty solid. I'm always thrilled to see a mention of Joss' work, but this article takes the cake. Yes!

TaraLivesOn, so are you wearing a Hello, my name is Whedonesque TaraLivesOn? I'm showing up with at least four other Flanatics from Tallahassee and Tampa.

So a three or four place jump linked, perhaps, to an article that most folks don't even have in their mailboxes yet...hmmm.
So who's planning on writing a kudos letter to the folks at EW?

I was watching that entertainment program, "Extra," at some un-godly hour of the night last night, and they were highlighting some of EW's "Must List." I saw a tiny clip of a spaceship and thought to myself, "Holy crap, that Serenity!" So, I've been planning on running out to buy the magazine today.
"Extra" is doing a show this weekend where they'll be spending 30 minutes going over the "Must List." I'm guessing (although I'm not certain) that "Serenity will be included. So, everyone plan on watching. :)
ETA: I just checked amazon.com - FF is currently at #10!

I also love the little blurbs: Joss is right (as always!), Morena is great when she's funny, Nathan is exactly like Harrison Ford and Sean's quality of stillness (something that links him sibling-wise to Summer, strangely enough) is remarkable.

"On Disc 4, on the second special features page, highlight 'Joss sings the theme' and then hit the left arrow. Hit enter, and it will play a clip of Adam Baldwin singing the 'Hero of Canton' song from "Jaynestown"."

Tucker, though, seems to be a devout Buffy enthusiast. Historically, Buffy made the top ten (perhaps top three, though I don't remember specifically) of his year end top ten lists for TV shows, then DVD releases. It seemed (to me) he volunteered for every Whedon writing assignment and I feel he might have influenced the multiple Whedonverse cover issues and featured articles in the past.
Curious bit of trivia: Tucker once wrote a paragraph-long album review for EW that employed the word "effulgent." It was then that I knew he and I were kindred souls. I half expected a published eulogy from him when Buffy, Angel and Firefly left the airwaves.
To have such a well-respected and prolific proponent in such a prominent (and highly-circulated) place in entertainment news is a gift and I thank my lucky stars for Ken Tucker: for what he's done for the Whedonverse in general, and for making me feel like I wasn't alone in the geek-heaven fandom I endulged in for all these years.
Oh, and photo's nice too.
